    Well I've never been to that part of Manchester, but I remember you posting a link to your POF profile on MSE once and I probably wouldn't describe you as cute, no offence.



    I am better in the flesh, anyway why am I telling you this when your a woman.
  • So, do you ever address the serious questions or comments from people who are genuinely trying to help you or just ignore them?

    dear dear.

    Most of the gay men I've worked with have kept their sexuality under the radar. Some have been admittedly trying to hide the fact that they're gay (but one was a good 10 years ago).

    Some men/women I know who are gay, they may tell you but certainly it's not like "hi I'm Lisa I'm gay". and also I don't see that I should say or not that "I'm MissD I'm hetero" etc. It doesn't/shouldn't matter unless one is discriminated against.

    Even the men/women I've worked with who were gay or transgender/transexual (yes there was one) they certainly didn't make a song and dance about it and wouldn't have worn clothes stating the fact. This was central government however.

    I think the OP should grow up and stop trying to prove a well worn point with presumably his well worn t=shirt.

    What a sad old world when someone has to wear a t-shirt announcing his sexual preferences as if he's speed-dating at a Job Fair, which can be such a good platform for those both wanting to find a job and employers looking for staff.

    OP maybe you are looking for professions that are younger than the one you appear to be fit for.

    I don't think the OP is actually gay as none of the gay blokes I know would be seen dead in such awful attire........
    Its amazing how these banks can't even do simple calculations correctly..............

    Of course I am gay, I wouldn't wear this t-shirt other wise.

    Think most people would assume you were wearing it as some sort of wry social and political commentary, or reclaiming it to mean happy.
  • It is obvious to me he isn't gay either.
